Avoiding that holiday party “awkwardness”

We all know the holidays can be tough – all that socializing amid eggnog and tinsel and mistletoe can generate stress and result in those awkward holiday party moments…which can get kind of…awkward.

The remedy? Why, advice from The People’s Therapist, of course!

You are sooooo in luck this holiday season, because the ever-delightful Gina Vivinetto, of Today.com, just interviewed me (as well as a couple other highly qualified expert advice-giver types) and, in her inimitable fashion, extracted every delicious holiday morsel of holiday party wisdom we could summon from the deepest recesses of what remains of our holiday party addled minds.

You’d better read each and every word, folks, and take them to heart, too. It could be a lifesaver. Remember, better safely advised by holiday party experts (whatever they’re condition) than…well, risking awkwardness.
